How to ship Tennis Rackets
A tennis racket is light for its length, so its protected box dimensions deserve attention. Support the frame without bending it and keep pressure off the strings. A racket cover can protect the finish but does not provide the rigidity of a shipping carton. For multiple rackets, separate frames and keep handles from contacting neighboring heads.
What affects the shipping cost?
Outside carton length
The racket, handle protection, and end cushioning determine the final box length. Measure after packing because box volume can matter more than the bare racket weight.
One racket or a pair
Two rackets need separation and enough carton depth to avoid pressure between frames. Do not simply double a one-racket weight while keeping its box dimensions.
Bag and accessories
A full tennis bag, shoes, and ball containers create a different shipment from a racket alone. Include the actual accessories before comparing rates.

These are illustrative planning examples, not product specifications, required box sizes, or shipping quotes. Measure and weigh your sealed package before entering it in the calculator. Examples do not fill in the form.

Separated frames with space so handles cannot press against string beds.

A boxed bag with accessories secured away from racket heads.
Pack, measure, and buy your label
- Confirm the racket model, condition, and included cover or accessories. Photograph the frame and string bed.
- Protect the grip and frame with nonabrasive wrapping. Avoid tape directly on grips, strings, or painted surfaces.
- Use a rigid carton long enough for cushioned ends, supporting the frame and handle without bending the racket.
- Separate multiple rackets with dividers and secure any accessories in their own space.
- Fill movement gaps without putting pressure on the strings, seal the carton, and measure and weigh it.
- Compare available rates for the long parcel and buy a label with the actual packed dimensions.
Tennis Rackets Shipping FAQs
Answers to common questions about shipping tennis rackets.
- Enter the outside dimensions of the protected racket carton and its total weight. Length and box volume can affect the quote even though the racket is light.
- Use the cover inside a rigid shipping carton with support and cushioning. A soft cover alone does not prevent the frame from bending or protect it from handling impacts.
- Separate the frames and secure them so they cannot rub or press against each other. Keep handles and accessories away from the other racket string bed.
- Follow the racket manufacturer or service-provider instructions. Do not cut or change strings solely to fit the packing; support the frame without loading the string bed.
